In Bloom and Faux Ribbon Inspiration!

I just received these two sets and was so excited to put them to work. Here's what I made.

I stamped the sentiment in the same white ink and then popped up the flower on some foam dots :

I used some liquid pearls white opal in the centre to add some sparkle. I then stamped one of the smaller flowers from In Bloom on the inside of the card for some added detail in white:

It might be hard to see but there is a little white flower on the inner bottom right corner. Promise! The saying is from a fabulous set of sentiments called Everyday Sayings by Hero Arts. It is filled with great sentiments to use for all sorts of occasions.
